UPDATE: Police investigating wreck on 41-North in Henderson

City police are investigating a one-vehicle crash in the area of Barker Road and the U.S. 41-North strip Tuesday in which two people were injured, and traffic was stymied for roughly 45 minutes.

A third person involved in the accident suffered self-inflicted injuries and may be charged in connection with the wreck, police said.

Law enforcement said the accident occurred around 1:43 p.m. when an SUV driven by Chad Henson, 36, 521 N. Adams St., was southbound on the strip.

Witnesses told officers that it appeared that the occupants of the SUV were fighting. The vehicle swerved off the road and overturned, striking a telephone pole, authorities said.

A passenger in the vehicle, Roger Redden, 34, Princeton, Ind., exited the SUV, "behaving in a bizarre manner," a news release said.

Redden crossed U.S. 41 on foot and was located by police officers at Dempewolf.

Redden allegedly tried to get away from police and had to be subdued, officials said. Due to his self-inflicted injuries, Redden was taken into protective custody, police said.

Redden, Henson and another passenger, Ashley Brock, 28, Princeton, were transported to Methodist Hospital. Their conditions were immediately unavailable.

Police said Redden could face charges in connection with the accident.
